10yrs ago while covering a story, Stroger Hospital police famously arrested me. My call to the @suntimes, from a hospital basement holding cell, was taken by @dahaar. As I breathlessly explained what happened, he had 1 question – 1/2

We're sad to say goodbye to our own @dahaar, an editor with more than 40 years of journalism experience. Behind the scenes, his steady hand molded countless breaking news and criminal justice stories. He'll be missed, particularly by the many colleagues who count him as a friend.

“I’ll just get gas in the morning” is one of the worst decisions you can make as an adult

@WiNationalist A group of us went in on a Saturday last October and it was potluck night. We didn’t know, hadn’t brought anything, were told to get a bowl anyway. 🫡

Juneteenth is fun because you get to see all of the "you know Republicans ended slavery" people complain about a holiday that celebrates the end of slavery.

Sir, I'm here to buy 8 pounds of chicken wings, 600 paper plates, and a years supply of oil for my truck, not be harassed about changing my phone plan.

I was told today by a 17-year-old that there was no way people were writing 10 page papers without Al.

Dude, I was writing 10 page papers without having read the book.

A German visiting Auburn, Alabama, to watch Lionel Messi and Argentina play Iceland stopped at a Buc-ee's and ate brisket sandwiches on a stack of deer feeder corn.

A sentence never before uttered in all of human history.

We're not stopping with the Bears. We're heading to Cincinnati tomorrow to see how the Batesville Bengals sounds to them. We are Indiana. We are a football state. We are unstoppable.

I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.

NBA Jam had hidden code that made the Chicago Bulls miss last-second shots against the Detroit Pistons.

The creator was a Pistons fan.

So if the Bulls tried to win at the buzzer against Detroit, the game quietly sabotaged them.

Petty coding at an elite level.

Trump wears tons of makeup, loves interior decorating, his favorite band is the Village People, and he can’t stop talking about how hot guys are. Just an observation.
